    As a greek person, here we say it "Kle-te-mne-stra". The first and third e (Kle and mne) sounds as an actual e, like we say "glee or tree". And the second one (te) sounds like "eh" like we say "egg". So it's kinda like Klee-teh-mnee-stra. It's probably a different pronansuation in english but that's the greek style! I probably confused you more!😂

So happy for you to invest in yourself in therapy-I’ve gone at different times in my life, and somewhat recently started again for OCD and it’s been lifegiving. Hang in there ❤️

    I actually got to meet Natalie Haynes a couple of years ago because I was studying Classical Civilisation at school! I read a Thousand Ships earlier this year and loved it so much. So well written and I love retellings of the Iliad because i'm less familiar with it compared to the Odyssey and Aeneid. I'm just about to pick up another Natalie Haynes book, 'The Ancient Guide to Modern Life' which is actually non-fiction about how Greek and Roman life is still present in our everyday. She has also written a few other myth retellings such as 'The Children of Jocasta' which are also meant to be really good. I'd also recommend the Canongate myth series, which is a collection of different myth retellings from different authors, especially 'The Penelopiad' by Margaret Atwood.

    ALSO, I’ve been reading Stephen Fry’s retellings of the Greek myths. There’s three books: Mythos, Troy, and Heroes. He is such a witty writer and he puts down all the references to the myths in his footnotes. Although 400-paged, you would breeze through the book because it’s such a fun time!

    I finished my graduate degree last year and I am 32 now. I am still not use to summer being a thing. Only holiday I had since I can remember is Christmas break where I had work and school off. Last summer was COVID so I worked through it, plus I work in healthcare research so summer last year was incredibly busy for me. Then this year we had people leave our department because we were forced back to the office in July 2020 when no other university had anyone working on campus so half our staff left, so this year was all about hiring new staff and training them. Which, has finally happened. I hired and trained new staff and they are doing really well. I am incredibly impressed and proud of all of my employees. And so this summer I am thinking about finding a different job. I felt too guilty to leave previously because my job has been good to me, I have been promoted 5 times in 5 years, and I manage 8 people who I deeply care about. Now that I got my 8 people back to full staff and fully trained, I want a remote job working 4 days a week. Putting in applications for summer so sure, I am a summer person. Fucking University forced half my staff to pick their loved ones and their own lives over coming back into the office because our shitty fucking Governor declared the COVID doesn't exist because he wants to reopen Disney World and that means all state employees who work for state universities. Well Fuck him and Fuck Disney. I will find other employment. Currently my only summer plans. Sorry for the rant. I watched this after work and I have been drinking.
